People who have showed no signs of recovery after a long time, Can you please share your symptoms? @RisperdalConsta50mg and @rawbanana and others, can you share your symptoms. What are your energy levels, sexual function, motivation, apetite, cognition, sleep, emotions, and other things like at this point?

This may be a repeat question but i want to know what aspects of their symptoms have recovered and what remains?
 
What’s so wrong with people talking here to meet up in a game? Isn’t the point of this forum community? Everyone brings up brokenself as a gotcha, and no one should feel that they have to end their life, speaking as someone who also wanted to end their life, but also it seems some people just want to complain and not want to put any effort into their recovery, which is more than just being injected, it’s trauma from the hospital or psychosis or even just their personal lives. No one even mentions that brokenself was sending people gore in dms before they left us. Suicide is such a permanent thing and awful for the people in your lives we shouldn’t be putting people down for trying to distract their pain.
He didn’t send gore. Tonychopper was overreacting as usual. He sent me the same video and there was no gore. That Tonychopper guy is just weird.

No clue why you’d even bring that up anyway like it’s even relevant. So what if he did send gore anyway? Does that mean his life has less value?

I agree with ixi- this forum should be more about taking action and organizing against those monsters but most people here are complacent and act like it’s no big deal when it is a huge deal.

The mod on this forum constantly repeats the same shit like it’s off a script. There are countless people who don’t recover. And we should be talking about them and the lives lost. Ixi is basically the only person here who’s suggested taking any sort of action.

Most people here just constantly ask the same questions and obsess over details, others obsess over supplements and all this snake oil type shit to get better. No one’s actually doing anything to fight these fuckers. And to cast aside people who literally die is so shameful. Fuck you for that.
 
Been 11 months for me and I’m just getting worse. People act like you recover after a year. There’s no way. I don’t know what the fuck happened to my brain.

Everyone talks about dopamine but when you google the mechanism of action of Invega it just says that it is unknown but it is hypothesized that it affects dopamine and serotonin. But the truth is it does countless other things to the body. We have no idea what it really does.

They don’t do any research on the long term consequences of these drugs and continue develop technology to make it last forever because they can and it makes them billions of dollars.

And then there are people here who talk about video games and other pointless shit. There should be a focus on people’s whose lives get destroyed because of these chemicals.

And you know, when these people commit suicide the cause of death is always recorded as their diagnosis and not the medication. Any criticism of these practices just gets silenced. I hate the rhetoric that suicide is just sad for the people who knew the person. It’s saddest for the person who died because they lost their future, their dreams, their ambitions, everything. They were driven to that point and their life was suffering. It’s just fucking sad.

I was messaging brokenself on discord as he ingested the sodium nitrite I was there when he died and I listened to him talk about his pain for weeks before he died.

I agree with everything you said, except the motive for injecting can be other than money, often a sadistic reason and envy like i think happened in my case.

Most of people, according to data, show signs of recovery between month 6 to 12. But, data also shows recovery times upto 14 months, 16 months, 2 years, and 3 years in case of a 55 year old i spoke to. I hope you start to see the signs of recovery soon. What is the paliperidone level in your blood at this time? What are your symptoms at this point?

You’re talking to someone who got put on invega as a direct result of a suicide attempt. I just think it’s quite frankly very weird to bring up someone’s suicide in response to people who are literally in the exact same situation trying to feel better. There are ways to bring awareness without putting people down over it, like are we not supposed to try and feel happy because of what happened? If they didn’t actually send gore that’s great I bring it up to say that we don’t know each other, we have no clue what was going on behind the scenes besides what people choose to post on here. I’m not saying you can’t mourn clearly you were affected by it but I don’t know how you got such a bad faith interpretation from me saying suicide is awful for everyone involved and saying I’m casting aside the dead. I think people should let them rest in peace and live despite those who couldn’t.

From what I understood by my last knowledges this was some chemical torture created by the nazis inside their concentration camps and it’s designed to cause sufference and agony, not to cure any mental issue.

Then after the germans were defeated and the usa bring almost all scientists into their country under the “paperclip operation” they discovered all the germans research and after a while some pharmaceuticals commercialized this new chemical substance as a medicine to threat mental illness.

If are you asking yourself why you are not recovering maybe this is the answer, they gave you chemical torture designed by nazis, not a medicine.
 
I just returned to my home country from UK today. My mother doesn’t address the severity of the problems I am going through because of invega. My loss of emotions or anhedonia or sexual dysfunction she addresses none of it , the shit mother she is. She is just concerned that I havent got any periods in last 7 months ( last period on April 11th) and that I gained a lot of weight (15 kgs) . She keeps on blaming and fatshaming me constantly. So, my mother is forcing me to see a gynaecologist and start some hormone medication for withdrawal bleeding and inducing period. Is that safe after invega? I am scared to even take any hormones now. @InvegaAnon did you miss periods in the beginning? When did they return? Did any female take hormones to get back period?
My period (luckily) wasn’t affected by invega but when I stopped the injections my cycle got thrown out of whack and took a couple of months to balance back out to normal. Sorry your mum is blaming you/ fat shaming you… that’s messed up. I think getting some tests done on your hormones levels to check if they are out of whack is a good idea and if there’s anything you can take to fix it then that’s a good thing. Good luck.

what’s the difference between risperdial and invega?
 
Guys I’m really struggling at the moment. I feel no improvements at 3 months and panicking I’ll never get better. I know why people feel suicide is the only option, because this pressure never lessons—except, perhaps for when they sleep. I’m in hell right now. Akathisia hasn’t lessened at all.

I’am there since 16 months so i feel you but I don’t know how to help myself neither you.. I try my best with searching help from doctors even from university hospital but it’s like they don’t want that the truth came out..

Im very sorry you’re going through this. It sucks. These drugs have stripped our lives away. My doctor thinks it should be out of my system by now. The hundreds of people he would have prescribed this and he doesn’t even know the nature of the half-life nature of the drug. I’m not sure if I’ll get better. I don’t even expect a full recovery— I’d take a partial recovery over this suffering I’m dealing with any day. But this may be just wishful thinking, as it seems I’ll be stuck this way for now.

What I can’t accept is that we have drugs that can push up the dopamine, serotonine, alfa 1, alfa2 , GABA, norandrenaline etc. So basically there is the antidote for us but they don’t help us because they don’t want to assume the harm these injections do to people and they don’t want to assume that psychiatry can make mistake that lead to harm to people, so it’s more convenient to tell us “you are crazy”.

I am now one month in and the akathisia is awful, I am hoping it subsides in December or January
 
does anyone else here have ocd and have been getting more intrusive thoughts as result of invega? this truly is hell on earth

Yeah, I would say invega has caused me OCD. Hopefully your akathisia will ease soon, as this makes it impossible to live. I've had akathisia for 9 months now. I feel you.
 
Feeling better today, just 3 month and one week and i already feel my brain is starting to come back. Started having classes learning a language, so i will have something to keep busy. Maybe well start doing tennis classes as well. I'm still in bed most of the time but I'm starting to feel like a human.
what dosage and how many did you take?
